just bought a 2007 sr3 1800 with 30 hours on the boat,
when i was cleaning the boat i noticed 2 small cracks on the
top ledge of the boat just behind the windsheild is this normal
the rest of the boat is in mint condition,

HM75..welcome to the zoo.....
yeah..they are called gel coat stress cracks..they can easily be sanded down and re-gel coated in a matter of minutes.....doesn't take much just the right know how..a good fiberglass guy can do it easily enough...

I had some big ones on my old boat and they sanded out very well.
